The first 4 represent the 4 pillars of the US I think need to take a step back; Monroe represents fame and celebrity, Hithcock represents the fear and paranoia, Kennedy represents the politics and Brando represents the attitude

The next four just represent classic eras of entertainment, sport and celebrity, which I hope will help define a website I am working on

I really like the way the images look. I am not the hugest fan of the text in your last 4. Im sure you can work with this to make it fall in place a little better. But still really cool ideas, the first 4 would look great framed and put together.

I think the Hitchcock photo is the strongest of the original series because there's something eerie and great about it. Really nice!

Like in the previous post, the last four look like complete after thoughts that are done in the same visual aesthetics and have type slapped on it. I think it would be cool if you found images/sports moments that share the same representation of the original four in the series.

@tehbakery thanks for the input! I'm definitely going to work on the text for the last few ones as I pretty much did just slap it on there. I really want to get the first four framed together ASAP

@TheyCallMeVince the hitchcock one is my favorite too, i did something right with the curves I think I just can't remember what ! I need to look into that and yea the text wasn't too good - I'm going to post some new stuff soon thanks!

What did you design here? You didn't take the photos and the type is just added without much care.

I worked on the first four pictures for over a year, so the text wasn't "just added without much care" but you're right I didn't take the pictures; I scanned them and I didn't design much, but together they all work together

Hey everyone it's been a couple months and I appreciate everyone who posted in this thread- since I last posted I've been working on a new project "25ONLINE" that will embody the same characteristics and strategies as related to the original designs in this thread. "25ONLINE" will be an online magazine dedicated to satirizing, editorializing and blogging about our American culture categorized into three subject areas: news, entertainment and society. Along with that - my online brands "BUGS WITH ME" is all about creating dope visuals/websites for creatives and entrepreneurs.
